Colours of Life

This song and “Waceke” were written as I was spending a lot of time with Jimmy Brown in his studio. We were on a huge electronic music kick and it seems like we were recording something new every day. When I presented these two songs to the band, they said “save it for your solo album”… So I did. They were right in hindsight, but I still like the songs. –rick

Words by and music by Mester

Shivering in the cold
Blinking out the rain
I can feel you standing there
I can’t see a thing

All my time has gone away
And my hope has come undone

I need you to let you go

The colours of life
Waiting for the sun to shine
It’s going to take some time
Before the shadows are away
